Alexander Kriegisch updated PDFBOX-3323:
----------------------------------------
Description: When merging multiple PDFs into one compound document via
{{PDFMergerUtility}}, meta data like title, author, subject cannot be set but
seem to be taken from one of the input documents. This is usually not the
desired behaviour because as a user I have no direct influence on the meta
data. As a user I would like to explicitly set or at least overwrite certain
meta data for the destination document. Currently I can only set the
destination stream or file name, but not the meta data. (was: When merging
